LOl.....the funny part is you talk about your "set-up" being so great but did'nt run the nitto's. Notch's car went faster than yours just did in the 1/8 on wore out nitto's. I guess the camaro chassis is just that much more superior......on Notch's set-up with wore out stock suspension just "works" better....lmao

Thanks man. It actually was a 5,000 clutch dump in all the runs but one, which was a 5,500. Now that I'm not on stock suspension and have better tires I can get ALOT more done. Going to tune the suspsension more and shoot for 1.4s. This^^ I've ridden in quite a few mach 1's with gears and not. I'm always impressed with how well they pull down low its just after the get up around the top of 2nd or third they run out of breath compared to an ls1... Before I had my car my buddies light bolt on z28 would get pulled about a half of car to 45 with my other friends light modded mach 1... after 2nd gear though it was all over lol
Good runs stoppy! Go to a 1/4 track and see what she does for real. I've always liked machs for the shaker setup

This is the most recent video of me running a bolt on LS1. As you can see there is no running out of steam on top end. I had a passenger and he was solo.
I know man. That is why I wasn't even going to post up the numbers it ran but I didn't realize you could read the score board. I thought it got cut out. Oh well...another day!

I think for the mods Stoppy has mixed in with his ability to launch his car allows him to run the times he does. I am a firm believer that it is not only about the Hp/Trq but the combination of many other things such as putting the power down to the wheels and more importantly, driving the car. Stoppy and his car is a good example of this...Just my opinion though..

Damn, the hate is thick in here! At least he had the ***** to take his car to the track and post up. More than I can say for some of the "GM guys" in here that only run their mouth. :winkwink:

Nice runs, Stoppy! Car rolls out. Thanks for posting up all vids versus just what you want us to see.
Definitely speaks about your character
If my bolt-on LT1 was capable an 8.2 in summer heat and awful DA on a 1.74 60ft, you should easily be able to do 7's with your mods. Tire up!

Going to tune the suspsension more and shoot for 1.4s. Yea I definately would rather have been at the 1/4! But Zmax rained out so we went here.

Oh well...another day!A million and one variables in that video, bolt on LS1 means what exactly, it has a catback? Lol. For all I know he was in the wrong gear or maybe an auto.

LOL...did'nt mean to rain on your parade but facts are facts. Your the one always talking about set-up and if the "works". Yours don't "work any better than a wore out f-body at this point. Funny though that your 60' was .2 faster and 1/8 was slower.
LOL....that's a pipe dream. Here's what a slipp looks like to get you there. Notice that the 1/8 was better and this car had 4mph on you in the 1/8. Your mach is not gonna back 1/2 better than this. Well your mach is not gonna back 1/2 as good as this car either. This is Notch's slip.
Keep using that correction factor if they make you feel good.

The light bolt on N/A 4v is smashing your dreams son! Just for you I'm going to keep the stock log manifolds off until I run it at the 1/4.

Good runs Kevin!
You had to know that posting 1/8 mile passes on here was going to catch the hate, so props for posting the video's.
Was the Cobra that ran 5.20's, Terry Morton?
